We're Up To Our Asses In Crocodiles
6:55 PM
I have mentioned before that I have two bosses, one is Adam who is the inventory control manager that shares an office with me, the other is Barney, the transportation manager who has an office in the garage (the office is attached to a warehouse, and the garage is attached to the warehouse). I don't talk to Barney as much, but I have gotten pretty far behind in the paperwork that I do for him so I have been back and forth between the garage and my desk all week and therefore talking to Barney more often. He likes to say random little sayings, for instance, he told Brian the mechanic and myself that "We're up to our asses in Crocodiles" yesterday. It could have been the lack of sleep this week, but I laughed so damn hard at that. I am going to assume that he meant that he was getting his ass chewed out by upper management or something of the like, but since I have been pretty much forced into overtime, I figured it would make a great post title.
I have basically been working my ass off all week between work and school. It has been hard trying to keep everything smooth, last night Kyle took these pictures and I decided to just try to express how I felt. Then Louie photo-bombed the last few. This morning however, I crawled my ass out of bed, drank my coffee, and arrived at work with a new attitude. I literally took everything that was thrown at me and just charged through it and that was that. I still have to go in for part of the day tomorrow, but I am no longer buried, I am swamped, but I can breath.

I am going to make an effort to use the phrase "up to our asses in crocodiles" in casual conversation at some point this week. Funniest. Line. Ever.

D'aw, Louie.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of dog is he again? A lab?
Awww, Kyle is such a cutie! I love the scarf - it reminds me of this fall's Rag and Bone!
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope things slow down soon so you won't be "buried up to your ass in crocodiles"!
ReplyDeleteYour puppy is so cute, and I love your scarf!
Good for you, buddy. You're adapting to a demanding situation. That's valuable learning.

I was so scared you hated me for life after my last comment. I felt so odd afterwards. I am so glad you left me such a sweet and positive comment on my last entry though. I wear push-up bras too but I'm an A cup. :( My breasts looked big in my last entry to me for some reason and I told my hubby and he said, "they're growing!" and I said, ". . rigggght. They're hardly even there in the outfit entry before it!!"
ReplyDeleteWow must be fun to share an office with your boss. Beware of the Crocodiles. seriously that is not a good situation for you to be in. hahaha.
You look comfy with your little bear stuffed animal here!
I agree with what E said..the scarf does make my mind go to this Fall's Rag and Bone!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog, I like it very much! You are so fun and your outfits are the cutest!
New follower of course
Just when I thought these pictures couldn't get any cuter, Louie popped up out of nowhere and was all, "O HAI LOOK AT MEEEEE."
ReplyDeleteAlso, I wish I had photographed my face when I read "We're up to our asses in crocodiles" because that makes no effin' sense whatsoever. haha

Hey Sara! OMG, you make me laugh. I know exactly how you feel. I used to have a crazy schedule before; I was working full time, going to school full time and have a part time job on the weekend. I didn't have a blog then because I only have time to sleep. I love your expressions! And sorry you can't see the video on my blog! I think if you searched for "Alma animation short" on youtube, you can find it! xxoxooxo
